Lyrics

Canada

Jimmy took the night express
Out of grand forks home I guess
No one had that much to say
About the fact he's gone away

But Maggie she just stood there blinking
Fast and that got me to thinking
All them things you'll recall
Just before a tear will fall

So I took her hand in mine
We walked down through the parking lot
Got in the car turned on the heater
It smelled like hell but it got hot

I leaned over on the radio
There's thunderstorms in Chicago
Then the night polite as please
Wrapped us in its memories

Funny how it seems to be
It all comes back to you and me
Sitting here all alone
Still together on our own
Alright it'll heal
It's alright just a chill that i feel
Just a cold wind blowing through
From Canada

And as we pulled out of that station
With no need for further conversation
I kept hearing things she'd said
And she kept staring straight ahead

And as I took the long way home
All my thoughts begin to roam
Through the nights through the days
Through the tricks a quick mind plays

To the point where there's no doubt
What the whole thing had been about
Something old something new
Something different to do

And I see Jimmy his face glowing
Through the window his eyes showing
Who'd been lover who'd been friend
And who'd been first to see the end
